I bought a weeping fig plant

I bought a weeping fig plant, which seemed to be an indoor plant. But since we got it home the leaves have slowly began to drop off. Could you please tell us if there is a remedy to stop this fault and keep the plant healthy?

Your plant needs loads of light but not direct sunlight. It has to be cool and may be reacting against central heating. However, I would make a guess that you have over watered it, which could really cause problems. The good news is that it should recover if these conditions are met. If it has been over-watered, a good tip is to stand it on a wedge of kitchen paper, which should blot up the excess moisture. Best of luck!
